As a parent, we must commit wholeheartedly to be present in our child’s life. Currently in this digital age, children are very restless and impatient. It is our duty as parents to channelize them constructively with some budget free activities.

Children these days are very pampered. If their friends have a new gadget or game, they ask their parents to buy it immediately. Taking the children to the mall and hotel every week, spending according to their wishes, playing video games and eating whatever child wishes is a fancy living, which is not in line with our traditional Indian way of parenting. It’s time we rethink how we engage our children.

There are some budget free activities for the children where you can follow.

Budget free activities for children at home:

  1. Drawing, colouring, painting and art out of waste

  3. Help mother during meal times to set the table or to serve dosa, chapati or poori to other family members
